You will be surprised how many windows programmers hate linux and would like to prove that it has exactly the same vulnerabilities as windows and that these vulnerabilities are "natural" to any complex system. The simple act of claiming that linux is more secure than windows can start the fires burning in a windows hacker. I would not be surprised if openbsd systems are all attacked everyday. My servers are attacked 24 hours a day. All 7 of them for the past 3 years. > > > _________________________________________________ > Philippine Linux Users' Group (PLUG) Mailing List > [email protected] (#PLUG @ irc.free.net.ph) > Read the Guidelines: http://linux.org.ph/lists > Searchable Archives: http://archives.free.net.ph > > -- www.smsglobal.net SMS Global Ltd Short Message Service For Seafarers _________________________________________________ Philippine Linux Users' Group (PLUG) Mailing List [email protected] (#PLUG @ irc.free.net.ph) Read the Guidelines: http://linux.org.ph/lists Searchable Archives: http://archives.free.net.ph
